Anybody have/use the Ground Control Adjustable Height Front Spring Kit?

I am looking into getting this front spring kit as it will allow me to adjust the ride height for whatever I am doing (ie street driving, road course, or drag racing) and I won't be stuck with one height. I am wondering if anyone is using this kit and how they like it if they are. It sounds really nice with a jack screw that can be adjusted through the hole in the middle of the lower spring perch. For those of you wondering about this kit check out www.ground-control.com for more info. I have already decided to get their rear adjustable kit as a friend of mine has this kit on his 96 Z28 and it is very nice . It has a billet adjuster that slips into the lower spring perch that the spring sits on and has a spanner-nut style adjusting sleeve to change ride height and corner weights.

Thanks ahead of time for any info,

Matt

I haven't used it, but when I contacted Koni about a coil-over system, that's what they suggested. In fact here's the exact response:

"We only have shocks available for your vehicle. If you want to upgrade to a coilover system, you would have to use a coilover sleeve (like Ground Control) with our shocks. Otherwise, you would have to have something custom made. I would check with Ground Control as this is a cheaper alternative and the Sport shocks can be matched to work will with this system. If you have any other questions, please let me know. Thanks."
